Rhyme Scheme: AAAB AACC DDEE AAFF| In candent ire the solar splendor flames | A |
| The foles langueseent pend from arid rames | A |
| His humid front the Give anheling wipes | A |
| And dreams of erring on ventiferous riper | B |
| - | |
| How dulce to vive occult to mortal eyes | A |
| Dorm on the herb with none to supervise | A |
| Carp the suave berries from the crescent vine | C |
| And bibe the flow from longicaudate kine | C |
| - | |
| To me alas no verdurous visions come | D |
| Save yon exiguous pool's conferva scum | D |
| No concave vast repeats the tender hue | E |
| That laves my milk jug with celestial blue | E |
| - | |
| Me wretched Let me curr to quercine shades | A |
| Effund your albid hausts lactiferous maids | A |
| Oh might I vole to some umbrageous clump | F |
| Depart be off excede evade erump | F |
